A home for nature!

As I was doing some work in the garden, I noticed a 'tunnel' through the short grass around the shed. Fearing the worst (the fields around us are being harvested at the moment) I kept my eyes open, and was soon relieved to see that it had been made by a large Hedgehog. We have at least three of these delightful creatures visiting the garden, and it was great to see that one of them had moved in to the Shed Hilton!

About Me

I've been looking at birds for fifty years: I used to twitch, but stopped when I'd seen 400 UK species. (Back in the 80's, I was part of a four-person team that won the national 24-hour birdrace three times!) I'm 'on' 430-odd now (UK 400)
I tend to concentrate on wildlife within ten miles of my front door these days!

I am the UK's only full time professional meteorite dealer and have had the pleasure of enjoying dinner/drinks with almost all of the surviving Apollo astronauts!
